Privacy Policy

And that’s precisely why I’ve decided to include the following, which discloses the information gathering and dissemination practices for this website.

General Information

Children Under 13

We care about protecting the privacy of children and won’t knowingly allow anyone under the age of 13 to provide us with personal identifying information. If you’re under age 13, please do not submit any personally identifying information (such as your name, your email address, hometown or your phone number).

Information We Collect:

We collect information in two ways. First, there is the information you supply when you register to receive emails from the site or when you comment on the site. Second, there is information collected as you navigate the site.

Personally Identifying Information:

Sarah’s Cucina Bella may include comment forms, online surveys, registration and other online forms that ask for names, email addresses and other contact information. It is entirely voluntary to fill these out.

Web cookies (also known as HTTP cookies, or just cookies) are parcels of text that are sent by a server to a Web browser, and then sent back unchanged by the browser each time it accesses that server. In other words, a cookie is a piece of data stored on a user’s computer that is tied to information about the user.

Web beacons are objects that are embedded in a webpage or email that are invisible to the user, but allow checking that a user has viewed the page or email. Other names are web bug, tracking bug, tag or page tag.

This website does use cookies. Additionally, some of my business partners (for example, advertisers) may use cookies and web beacons as well. This site has no access to, or control of advertisers’ web cookies or web beacons.

If you wish to disable cookies, you may do so through your individual browser options. Please check your browser’s help section for instructions on how to do this.

I encourage you, when you leave this website, to read the privacy policy (or privacy statement) of each and every website you visit, as this particular privacy policy applies solely to this particular website.

Advertisers

I use outside advertising networks and companies in order to display ads on this site. These ads may contain cookies and/or web beacons in order to collect data in the ad serving process. These such cookies and/or web beacons are collected by the companies and/or advertising networks, themselves. I do not have any access to this information.

I currently work with several advertising networks and companies, such as the BlogHer Ad Network. If you have any questions, please check their websites for their respective privacy policies.
